Does anyone ever say anything other than Postgres?

  I thought it was meant to be "Postgres-Q-L" Edit: wow, the naming page says that Postgres-QL is a "weird derivation".

    For what it's worth I've also always pronounced it "Postgres-Q-L".

    I think you misunderstood what that bullet point is trying to say. It IS "Postgres-Q-L". That bullet point is talking about someone theoretically thinking that the name is logically two parts: "Postgres" and "QL". When really it's "Postgres" and "SQL" and the middle S is elided.

      But it is Postgres - QL, because you have Postgres, the server, and its Query Language. Straightforward. ... okay no I was trolling
